Chapter 784: The truth is revealed at night

Mu Ping

Tongsheng Inn

Peter smiled and paced back and forth, a smug smile on his face. He was very happy, because he had gained a lot in Yang Shunhui's mansion today, although Yang Shunhui did not agree, but the fleeting greed in his eyes still made Peter keenly capture. Moreover, he was not only happy because he saw the greed in Yang Shunhui's eyes.

He looked like he was about thirty years old, with a very muscular build, no beard, and a tough face. Such a man is a very iconic beautiful man in the world on the other side of the ocean, and even in the Central Plains, he looks more pleasing to the eye than those bearded foreigners.

"It doesn't look like there's going to be anything in the way."

Peter smiled and sat down in his chair.

When he was in the Great General's Mansion, the foreigner who looked to be about fifty years old who had been standing behind him like a servant smiled and said: "It should be, although Yang Shun will have a high title in the Great Sui, but the gold coins that can fill ten boxes are enough to make anyone greedy in their hearts." As long as a person has greed in his heart, he will grow like a weed after the rain. ”

"That's not what I'm happy about."

Peter shook his head: "You only see what is on the surface, and I see deeper...... I saw that this dragon called the Great Sui was coming to an end, and the invincible and powerful empire described by the Eastern Chu people was now rotten to the point of death, and it smelled of decay, but I liked it. ”

"Why do you have such a judgment?"

The old servant asked.

"I have asked the people of Eastern Chu, and the emperor of the Sui State is just like the emperor of my Oplu Empire, with supreme authority, and no one can resist. If the people of Eastern Chu did not lie, then Yang Shunhui's performance today is enough to show that this empire has come to an end. ”

"If the Sui State is really still powerful, the emperor of the Sui State really has the supreme power, and the Sui army is really proud and victorious in a hundred battles, then I will not see such a situation today. Yang Shunhui was indeed hesitating, whether he was greedy for the gold or not, I didn't see fear in his eyes. If the emperor of the Sui State still maintains his majesty and maintains an undoubted position of power, then even if Yang Shun has the courage to accept my gold coins, there will be fear in his eyes. ”

"He didn't! There was only greed and hesitation in his eyes. This shows that even if he agrees to the establishment of trade relations between us and the Sui State, he has nothing to fear. If the Sui State was still strong, and the rule of the royal family was as solid as a stone, then would he have such courage? His performance is enough to show that he has the right to decide this matter, and there is no need to report it to the emperor of the Sui State, then it means that this person has lost his awe of the Sui royal family. ”

"It can be seen that the Sui State is really in chaos to a certain extent."

He spoke a little fast, and there was undisguised excitement in his words.

"yes"

The old servant sighed, "Why didn't I see this, so ...... I can only follow you and do what you tell me so that I don't make a mistake. ”

"Ha Lu Ha"

Peter smiled and said, "As long as Yang Shun agrees to open the coastal port, then the news can be sent back." Once this matter is successful, there will be no need for the Eastern Chu State to exist. ”

"In such a hurry?"

The old servant was a little worried: "If you are in a hurry to start a war against Eastern Chu, will the Sui State send troops to help once the news is heard?" After all, Eastern Chu and the Sui State are adjacent to each other, and the Sui State will not watch the Eastern Chu being destroyed. ”

"No, no, no"

Peter shook his head: "As long as Yang Shun will nod, then no matter what happens in Eastern Chu, the Sui State will not interfere, because as long as Yang Shun will dare to nod, it means that the control of the Sui royal family is already very low, so this is not a terrible country." A country without a leader to guide the way, no matter how big it looks, is nothing, it is just bloated, not strong......"

"Moreover, in my opinion, even if the empire moves troops against Eastern Chu, the first thing the Sui people should do is not to send troops to help Eastern Chu resist the enemy, but to immediately send troops to loot all the Eastern Chu merchants in Great Sui, and not even leave them a single trouser head. The merchants of Eastern Chu held huge wealth in their hands, and for Yang Shunhui, if he could not resist ten boxes of gold, he would not be able to resist the wealth in the hands of those Eastern Chu people. ”

With this wealth, Yang Shunhui will be able to expand his army and make himself stronger, because he aspires to be strong. Only when he is strong can he participate in this game called World Domination. There is no doubt that when a powerful country is suddenly in chaos, then those who have the opportunity to become the next emperor will not give up easily. Although Yang Shunhui is not young, the more old the temptation of being an emperor, the greater the desire......"

"You're right"

The old servant bowed his head and said, "Then, tomorrow I will send someone to the General's Mansion to ask?" ”

"No hurry"

Peter said: "If we are too anxious, then Yang Shunhui will think that we have a problem, even if he will eventually agree, I am afraid that we will have to take more things." Tomorrow I don't have to worry about the affairs of the General's Palace, but I should send someone to find out the whereabouts of those damned despicable Rus'. ”

The old servant bowed his head and said: "I will send someone to investigate secretly tomorrow morning, after all, the Eastern Chu people still have a cooperative relationship with us, and those Rus' people who have no home like wild dogs will not get more friendship than us...... Although there is now only the Duchy of Thurence and no Duchy of Rus, those Rus' people have clearly not given up their stubborn resistance...... In order to recruit troops for wealth, the Rus' rebels should also contact the Eastern Chu people and obtain wealth through business. ”

"Hmm"

Peter nodded: "The biggest gain from coming this time is to see the truth of the Sui State clearly." Send someone early tomorrow morning to send the news back to the Duchy of Repairence, so that the army is ready to attack at any time. As long as the Sui people would not send troops, it would not be difficult for the imperial army to take Eastern Chu. Although there was a seemingly powerful navy in Eastern Chu, they didn't know how to use the power of the warship...... A warship armed with a ballista bow and arrow is a hedgehog at best, which makes the enemy feel a little tricky. ”

"And our ships are already armed with artillery and can defeat them like an elephant trampling a rat. Dongchu is too rich, if all the gold in this country is concentrated, it should be as high as the Misty Mountain. ”

"The main thing is ......"

The old servant smiled and said, "The territory of the empire is a little bigger. ”

"It's going to be bigger."

Peter smiled but said firmly, "Everyone in the Opru Empire is well aware that the expansion of the Empire will only stop under one circumstance...... That's ...... The entire world has been completely occupied by the Opru Empire, and no enemy can own a piece of land the size of even one foot. ”

The old servant bowed his head: "You are right, the Opru Empire will definitely become the only country in the world. ”

"Go ahead, go and check the movements of those Rus rebels, if they are also doing business with the Sui people, they will definitely be in Muping, give those Eastern Chu people some benefits, and you will get the answer soon. Those benefits will be brought back soon."

Peter waved his hand: "You go down, I am very happy today, so I plan to sleep well and wait for the good news tomorrow." ”

……

……

late at night

In the town fifteen miles west of Muping City, a team of about 200 people is stationed here. This is a caravan that has just purchased all the goods from Muping City, and it has returned with a full load. I don't know why they were so anxious to go out of the city, and came out in a hurry before the city gate was closed, and then stopped in this town after driving fifteen miles.

This is a contrary to common sense, with so many goods, in order to rush out of the city for fifteen miles?

However, because there were too many traders coming and going in Muping City, no one would pay attention to them at all. As long as enough taxes are paid, the soldiers guarding the gate will not be too strict. If they were given some silver, they would be allowed to go without even checking it.

On one side of the town is the official road, and in the ditch on the east side of the official road, a human head slowly poked out of the dense grass and looked at the town.

"Divide into three groups, be careful, and clean up the dark whistle for me."

The man retracted his body and commanded.

"Tuan rate, don't worry!"

His men nodded, and led three groups of masters towards the town under the cover of night. The person who gave the order was none other than the leader of the Xiao Riding School.

"After the secret sentry over there was cleared, the rest of the people were divided into four teams and entered the town from four directions, and there were about two hundred and twenty or thirty people on the other side, who had been observed during the day, among them more than twenty coachmen, most of whom did not know martial arts. The rest of the people are sure to be from military backgrounds, otherwise they don't have such a good guard. We have a small number of people, but we are more proficient in fighting at night, and at first we tried not to disturb the people inside, this place is too close to Muping, and it only takes half an hour at most for the cavalry to gather and rush over, and most of the time is not used on the road. In one word, be quick! ”

"Whoa!"

The people of the Xiao Riding School and the masters of the world of goods answered the call, and then dispersed under the leadership of the leaders of each team.

Maybe it was because he didn't expect that he would be targeted when he left Muping, so although the caravan was heavily guarded, it was still a little careless. Especially the dark whistle, there are not many settings. Therefore, the people of the Xiao Riding School did not spend much time cleaning up these dark posts, and the only thing left was to fight.

Zuo Mingcia brought the elite, and what these Xiao Riding School people were best at was assassination, and in the dark, they were like predatory beasts, devouring the caravan patrol team group by group. It wasn't discovered until it was almost as close as the caravan camp, but by this time it was too late.

And the most surprising thing is that the people of this caravan did not set fire to warn after arriving at the very end! As long as the firelight comes together, Mu Ping's side will definitely find out. Then the people of the Xiao Cavalry School determined that most of the members of this caravan were indeed well-trained soldiers, they did not shout, they fought silently, even if they were at a disadvantage, they were not defeated, they had been resisting, and even organized two very threatening counter-charges.

Maybe it was to hide their identities, so their equipment was far inferior to that of the people of the Xiao Riding School, and in about half an hour, the battle was over. More than half of the more than 200 people in the caravan were killed, and the remaining sixty or so were controlled by the men of the Xiao Cavalry School with crossbows, and they stopped resisting at the signal of the leader.

"I don't care if you're from the government or where you come from, you did something wrong today. You have offended people you can't afford to offend, and if you retreat now, you may still have a chance to live. ”

The leader of the caravan remained arrogant even after he was captured, and he spoke with his body straight, so that he was more sure of his identity.

Zuo Mingcian didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, because no matter who the master behind this caravan was, how powerful and terrifying Zuo Mingcian was not worried, because these people would never have thought that it was the people of the Black Flag Army who robbed them.

"!"

When his subordinates cleared out the carriage and saw the things hidden inside, Zuo Mingciao's eyes instantly widened, and he subconsciously cursed, and his voice trembled a little.

The goods of the carriage were all messy things, which were collected by the caravan from the Eastern Chu people at a high price. And after the big boxes below were opened, Zuo Mingciao's heart almost stopped. He never imagined that this caravan had bought so many goods to hide these things!

This thing is so shocking.

The box was full of muskets.
